Where was Mistico? CMLL didn’t bother coming up with a cover story. Injured? Double booked (as he is on Sunday, where’s he advertised for Acapulco & Neza at the same time)? Something else? Sin Cara had a theory: he wrote “Mistico La Nueva Era was drunk” on Twitter, then deleted it. I don’t really trust what Sin Cara says about himself, much less people he doesn’t seem to always like. It’s more interesting Sin Cara would think this was a good thing to put on Twitter, for as brief as it was on there.

Sombra went on social media to declare he never wants to team with Volador again. He won’t, for a whole six days. (Sombra was surprised to find they were teaming again on Friday, which is a bit incredible.)

CMLL apparently decided to just not change their booking of this half of the tournament without Mr. Niebla, basically rewarding Euforia for being the best rudo who wasn’t actually supposed to be in this tournament. Could be worse, and could be a good match, but I think Maximo & Rey Escorpion are strongly favored.

Terra only aired two matches last night, but kept the broadcast up long enough to include Ultimo Guerrero winning Copa Bobby Bonales. It was peculiar to do it at that point, since they’ve done it right before that person’s match in previous years, so they probably just wanted to make sure it aired on the stream. Terra cut off the broadcast the night CMLL honored Oro, so I’m kind of hoping they’ve rethought that policy and don’t just have odd priorities. I’m hoping there’s not a tournament any time soon, because these two match shows are beyond annoying.

Marcela recalls she said she’d retire if she lost her hair to Tiffany, and then says she would not retire if she lost her hair to Dallys. Hmmm.

Unless they make the semimain a trios title match, I have no idea why it’s the semimain event. (Even if they did, a feud that hasn’t really been acknowledged by the promotion probably shouldn’t be ahead of a hair match and an annual tournament that’s probably setting up a hair match itself.) I also have no idea why the useless Thunder is getting a big show spot over dozens of more useful, valuable and deserving people.

Tickets already went on sale for the show, with the highest ticket at 580 pesos ($rr USD) including Ticketmaster charges.
